I updated 10.4 to 10.5 (I did not archive and install) successfully and installed XTools3.0. When I launched XDarwin (using xorg), KDE came up but the fonts were screwed up - I only had a box outline for each character. I checked /etc/fonts and the fonts.conf and fonts.dtd files were now fonts.conf.bak and fonts.dtd.bak, so I restored them w/ o the .bak. No go. I then rebuilt xorg and xorg-shlibs (I had not yet issued the fink reinstall fink command). No go. Then I reinstalled fink and found out that 10.5 does not support xorg, so I installed Apple's X11. Interestingly, when I originally updated, the Leopard DVD installed /usr/X11 with usr/X11/: include, lib and man directories even though I did not ask the installer to install X11. When I installed Apple's X11, I manually installed the X11 and X11SDK packages, and I got everything. I can run X11 with quartz-wm, windowmaker, and icewm, but I can not run the KDE window manager. Under windowmaker with quartz-wm --only- proxy & set in my .xinitrc file, I can launch the individual KDE apps and XEmacs. However, KDE with the following set in .xinitrc: export KDEWM=kwin exec /sw/bin/startkde >/tmp/kde.log 2>&1 will not run. I have xterm and rxvt windows come up in rootless mode with no borders yet as usual, and the KDE tooltip logo comes up next to the cursor and then I get the following two messages as crash dialogs: 1. The application ksplash quit unexpectedly. There is a long crash report in dialog that I can not copy. 2. The application kdeinit quit unexpectedly. Again with with long crash message. After the crash message come up Apple's X11 crashes. Obviously, both the kde splash screen and kdeinit crashed. Does anyone have any suggestions? XTools3.0 appears to be working properly as I am able to build new packages with fink without any problems.
